It seems to allow all sorts of odd things, like: - not reporting missing named templates - not reporting missing variables - not reporting variables with no following sibling - allowing things like: <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:with-param... - somehow allowing without it being declared (possibly on that one..!) I was given a large set of stylesheets that apparently work using the oracle processor but obviously don't compile using Saxon which generates a nice long list of fails and warnings.... Surely the Oracle processor can't be that bad?? I haven't had time to test it properly yet, so it may not be the case (apologies to Oracle if I'm talking rubbish!) Maybe someone else has the time and inclination... The code I'm working on is an intertwined birds nest of call templates with heavy use of extension functions :-/ Getting it to a debuggable state and then stepping through it is mind numbing. -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/
